The ASUS TUF Gaming F15 is less expensive and offers solid gaming performance with a great processor and powerful graphics. Its larger screen is good for general use and gaming but has a lower resolution and less impressive color coverage. Also, it’s heavier and thicker, making it less portable, and has a shorter battery life. In contrast, the Razer Blade 14 is more portable with a higher price, superior battery life, and a sharper, brighter display with excellent color accuracy, making it better for creative work. It’s slightly less powerful in graphic-intensive tasks but still offers high gaming and engineering performance. Give Feedback

Although they have very similar scores, PerfectRec considers Razer Blade 14 (2023) to be very good for general use, while the ASUS TUF Gaming F15 is good.
The Razer Blade 14 (2023) has a higher resolution display and better screen quality, which are both key for an enhanced general use experience, and it also offers superior portability due to its lighter weight and more compact size compared to the ASUS TUF Gaming F15. Although both have good processing power and memory for general tasks, the Razer's better portability and screen could justify its preference for general use over the ASUS, which offers still-good quality but falls slightly behind in these very important aspects.

Allen Ngo | March 2022
"Aside from all the chassis updates, the new TUF Gaming is most notable for its much higher TGP target of 140 W compared to only 95 W on the previous generation. PC makers everywhere are using the same GeForce GPUs this year since Nvidia has yet to launch the successor to the mobile RTX 3000 series. The more demanding processors of the new TUF Gaming has directly impacted battery life and the size of the AC adapter. Don't expect runtimes to be longer than on the previous generation under most conditions and be prepared to carry around an even larger AC adapter than before."

Allen Ngo | May 2022
"After making a huge splash with the original 2021 model, it's expected that the 2022 refresh would be more of a minor update to an already impressive machine. It adds a higher resolution webcam (720p to 1080p), faster CPU (Ryzen 9 5900HX to Ryzen 9 6900HX), faster GPU (RTX 3070/3080 to 3070/3080 Ti), faster RAM (DDR4-3200 to DDR5-4800), faster M.2 SSD support (PCIe3 x4 to PCIe4 x4), newer WLAN module (Killer AX1690i to Qualcomm WCN685x), and a MUX switch for the new integrated Radeon 680M GPU. It's indubitably an upgrade especially in terms of single-thread processor performance."
